Re: More Doctors Turning to the Business of BeautyFrom: art fougner, md (evsono@pipeline.com)Sat Dec 2 11:50:15 2006
"Doctors are increasingly choosing to trade medicinal necessities for a luxury practice, a factor that many who simply count raw numbers of doctors fail to take account of. Now, one must acknowledge that there are several reasons an ob-gyn would choose to switch from delivering babies to performing cosmetic surgery: the hours are better, one doesn't have to deal with the hassle of insurer and Medicare reimbursement, one's patients are likely to be more genteel. But surely the $120,000/year difference in malpractice insurance has at least something to do with it on the margin." http://www.overlawyered.com/2006/12/obgyns_become_cosmetic_surgeon.html Art

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
